Midfield_General Posted Wednesday at 07:46 Posted Wednesday at 07:46 (edited) So as I calculate it, we can be relegated by this Sunday evening. If we lose against Palace tonight, Wolves beat Ipswich on Saturday, and then we lose against Spurs on Sunday, then we'll be on 9 points and Wolves will be on 32 points, meaning we'll be 23 points behind them with only 7 games/ 21 points left to play for. I think that would set another exciting new PL record, as no-one's been relegated before with seven left to play? Derby went down earlier by date in 2007/8 (they went down on the 29th March), but only had six matches left at that point. Huddersfield also went down earlier by date in 2018/19 (30th March), but they also had six left. Roy Castle would be proud of this side. Edited Wednesday at 08:27 by Midfield_General 1 2 1

Genuinely think we should bring on a u16 player near the end of a game to get youngest ever player record, needs to be younger than Ethan Nwaneri (Arsenal) – 15 years, 181 days old 5
Turkish Posted Wednesday at 08:31 Posted Wednesday at 08:31 (edited) 6 more defeats needed to break that record, we're well capable of that a few more heavy defeats and we can break the worst goal difference too we're on -49 record is -69 so 21 needed, should be easily doable with 9 games left but we're currently on course for -64 on current form so the lads need to sort this one out Edited Wednesday at 08:32 by Turkish 6

OldNick Posted Wednesday at 09:15 Posted Wednesday at 09:15 For Wolves, any team to play apart from Saints would be WHU and they did what you expect, nothing

Tamesaint Posted Wednesday at 12:42 Posted Wednesday at 12:42 If you have to be relegated, this is the way to do it. Remember it is the hope that kills. We have had no hope since the Advent calendars appeared. No heart breaking moments like we endured in 2005. No endless analysis of the fixture list working out possible permutations. Being so crap means that we have been able to prepare for life in the Championship for several months now. Every cloud has a silver lining. 😁 3

Perhaps we could do something similar and spoil the last game at Goodison, this season. 3

Turkish Posted Wednesday at 14:10 Posted Wednesday at 14:10 imagine if we get relegated with the record low points, come back up and then equal our own record like we did with the two 9-0s. You wouldn't put it past us would you 😂 1 2

You wouldn't put it past us would you 😂 This might be the most catastrophic scenario I've ever encountered on this forum. 😂 Just imagine it – and the terrifying bit is we're entirely capable of making it happen. If that nightmare actually unfolded, it should warrant a lifetime ban from top-tier football.

Midfield_General Posted Wednesday at 21:08 Author Posted Wednesday at 21:08 Well we nearly put a spanner in the Sunday night relegation plan there, but since normal service was resumed in the 91st minute it’s still on. 1
ApprenticeBillionaire Posted Wednesday at 21:21 Posted Wednesday at 21:21 (edited) I want it confirmed as soon as possible because you just know the second that happens, these shithouses will turn into fucking Barcelona and we'll beat Derby's record.

It was confirmed before kick off last night, it was confirmed before we kicked off against Wolves. No one went into those games thinking we could still stay up. 1
Mr Saints Posted yesterday at 07:09 Posted yesterday at 07:09 Let's be honest, we were down after we fucked it up against Ipswich and Leicester at home. 1
Sarnia Cherie Posted yesterday at 07:40 Posted yesterday at 07:40 How sad that this season's ambition is not to be crowned the worst Premier League team ever. What the hell has happened to our Saints?
